To my DISABILITY COMMUNITY in the FEDERAL workforce:

I know you are scared and frightened of retaliation. The stories of Federal workers being terminated for not having their reasonable accommodations met are DISGUSTING. I PLEAD for you to come forward & share info. Our country needs your voices.🙏💜

The Inspectors General refuse to leave until the action is taken legally, which they do not believe it was, and neither do senators like Chuck Grassley. This is what not backing down looks like.

Trump and his MAGA allies are already targeting the four major pillars of resistance to Trump during his first term.

As we prepare for Trump’s second regime, it’s important to do what we can to protect and fortify these four centers of opposition.

RFK Jr’s long history of conspiracy theories, reckless disregard for public health, and racist, crazy ideology make him among the most dangerous of Trump's cabinet picks. He is unfit to lead our HHS.

Ominous: GOPers are now saying Trump is picking Kash Patel to "clean out" the FBI and restore its "integrity." This will be their cover to go along w/Trump's scheme to unleash FBI on enemies. Media is already credulously echoing this claim. Awful.

Trump wants to turn the FBI into something so draconian that the political press many not grasp it until it’s too late. And Republican senators are already giving themselves cover to go along with all...

I heard RFK Jr. is floating the banning of the polio vaccine so seems like a good time to remind folks that RFK Jr. was vaccinated with this same vaccine & therefore is at no risk of harm himself

Kinda like when he publicly was against the covid vaccine yet privately required his guests to have it🙃
